2015 36 Hole Season Starter - The Results

Posted by: user33026 [FORUM MODERATOR] | Sat 14th Feb 2015 15:09 | Last Reply

It's back!!! Again!!! Again!!! 1 golf club, 2 courses, 36 holes, 1 day

The 36 Hole Season Starter has been well received in previous years and will take place again in 2015. The event will take place at Minchinhampton Golf Club again and will take place on Monday 13th April 2015. Once again it's the day after the final round of The Masters

The general scope will be the same as before; bacon rolls and tea/coffee on arrival, 18 holes on one of the courses, lunch of soup and sandwiches, 18 holes on the other course, prizes. Cost will be £47

There is a restriction on the number of players with a 36 player maximum so get your name down quick if you want to play. The comp is on the link below: -

Morning guys, hope you haven't eaten all your easter eggs yet! The groups, tee times and food choices are below. I've done my best to accommodate everyone's requests (groups, start times, etc). You have a couple of days to request any changes as I'm handing this list to the club on Tuesday lunchtime. If there are no changes we will go with this list, if not I will post a new list

Sorry if the format is a little messy but it's the best I can do within the constraints of the Golfshake system. See you all there

Evening everyone

I know most of you have played in this comp before but here's some bits of info that you might find useful

  • As you enter the driveway please be aware of a green to your left and a tee to your right. If there are golfers on the tee please wait to be waved through
  • As you enter the car park, the driving range is on your left. Tokens are available from the pro shop
  • The chipping green and practice bunkers can be found by walking down the road between the clubhouse and driving range
  • The practice green is in front of the clubhouse
  • The first door of the clubhouse is the pro shop. Usual items in here, plus range tokens and payment & collection of buggies
  • Second door of the clubhouse is the entrance to the bar and retaurant (up the stairs when you go through the door). We will meet up there before the round for breakfast and you will also go up here for lunch. NOTE - This is not a spike bar and no golf shoes or wet waterproofs are allowed. Jeans, trainers and the use of mobile phones for voice calls is also prohibited
  • Third door of the clubhouse is the entrance to the changing rooms. There are plenty of lockers available which take a pound coin (returned afterwards) and showers. Towels are provided for the showers
  • First round is on Cherington, second is on Avening. Please check local rules on scorecard for out of bounds as they are often only effective one way
  • Winter rules are OFF
  • Expected pace of play is 3hrs 50m for a 3 ball medal in a club comp so expect to be round in no more than 4 hours. This gives you an hour for lunch. If you take longer you not only shorten your lunch but everyone's behind you too. If you can't score, pick up
  • Remember, white tees!!!

Please try to be around for 09:15 so I can give everyone a quick briefing.

IMPORTANT NOTE There has been some bunker remodeling over winter. Bunkers within white lines and containing sand are IN PLAY unless specifically marked. Grass within white lines around bunkers are compulsory GUR

Hope you play well and see you all there

Chris

Good afternoon everyone

Hope you all had a good day yesterday. Weather was pretty good and a few sun-tans were even evident in the bar at the end. Congratulations to Matt Holbrook who proved his shiny new handicap was no fluke winning both morning and afternoon rounds. The final leaderboards look like this
